A method and apparatus for sharing data between processors within first and second discrete clusters of processors. The method comprises supplying a first amount of data from a first data array in a first discrete cluster of processors to selector logic. A second amount of data from a second data array in a second discrete cluster of processors is also supplied to the selector logic. The first or second amount of data is then selected using the selector logic, and supplied to a shared input port on a processor in the first discrete cluster of processors. The apparatus comprises selector logic for selecting between input data supplied by a first data array and a second data array. The data arrays are located within different discrete clusters of processors. The selected data is then supplied to a shared input port on a processor.
